Since you seem to know what your problem is why don't you fix it????

Buffer Overrun
An attack in which a malicious user exploits an unchecked buffer in a program and overwrites the program code with their own data. If the program code is overwritten with new executable code, the effect is to change the program's operation as dictated by the attacker. If overwritten with other data, the likely effect is to cause the program to crash.

Arg. Another day another patch.
